Important Notes:

  • Where do they base the interests?
Interest Reference Month
0.05% base interest N/A
3.55% p.a. bonus interest from this promo January 2024’s average daily balance
Bonus Hongbaos 31st January 2024’s day-end balance
1% p.a. interest from completing HSBC Everyday+ programme contrasted with the previous month’s average daily balance


  • The 1% p.a. bonus interest from Everyday+ is only applicable to Fresh Funds
    • The HSBC Everyday+ program’s bonus 1% annual interest is only available on funds added during the preceding month. You will receive this 1% bonus for the month of February, for instance, if you topped off S$100,000 in February 2024 after having S$0 in your HSBC EGA account in January 2024. But come March 2024, this won’t qualify for the 1% annual bonus since it won’t be regarded as FRESH FUNDS


  • When will the bonus interest be credited?
    • Before any Bonus Interest or Lucky/Bonus Hongbao are paid, Eligible Customers must fulfill all Promotional requirements.
Bonus Interest earning Period Fulfillment Date
Existing Customers who already hold an Eligible Account: From 1 February 2024 until 31 March 2024 May 31, 2024

    Stackable with Direct Bank Rewards:
    • Receive up to 30,000 miles
    • Receive 10,000 miles when you pay the annual fee under “Fee Paying” option
    • Receive 20,000 miles when you make a min. spend of S$800 within 60 days of card approval (This is available for both fee paying and fee waiver option)
    • Therefore, fee paying option earns 30K miles, fee waiver option earns 20K miles, if requirements are met

    My thoughts: If you were going to apply for this card, you should choose the fee waiver option as the cost per mile is 196.20/10,000 miles = 1.96 cents per mile, which is quite expensive.
